Sideshow 1/6th Tusken Raider

[Cocoboloboy]

I used a color remover then watered down some acrylic paints and soaked the robes in the mixture until I was happy with the color. I also tore the robes a bit first to distress them. I did this to the inner robes as well to tone down that yellow color and awful weathering they did.

Looks terrific! Thank you for the tip!

I'd still like to get one of these guys for my collection.

I would have picked up this figure in a heart-beat if it looked like this, straight out of the box. Amazing work, Cocoboloboy.

I'd also recommend a Kylo Ren body or similar as a replacement for the Sideshow body. Large and sturdy and holds poses beautifully. I think a muscle body is the way to go with this.

Although I've yet to have the figure in-hand, from all accounts a body upgrade is likely. The Ren form is a great idea. Thanks!

After nearly 5 years in storage and multiple moves, I finally got a shelf put up for these guys. Stormtroopers better watch out.

Gave my HT sandy one of the sand covered SS stands. Looks much better now.

Great poses

Better pics (although still dark)

What rifle is he holding? Never seen that before.

I think it's the EX bonus. The rifle in Ep IV the Tuskens were going to use to take out Luke before deciding on a more personal attack.

Edit: Nope, came with regular release. The EX was a different weapon.

Oh nice, I thought the SS Tusken only came with the staff.

Nice looking Tusken! I'm hoping for a HT re-issue!

 

[Mike86]

I'd love to get one or two of these eventually too. Would love a Hot Toys re-issue.

 

[FlyAndFight]

I would definitely pick up two of these from HT. Momaw's poses are perfect.

Yes, would love at least 2 of these, and you are right, he did a great job with the pose!

Thanks guys. Puts a smile on my face every time I come up the stairs and think those poor sandtroopers don't have a clue what's coming
